Four chickens snack on a treat of dried mealworms, which Katie Hitt shakes into the run of their coop from a red plastic cup. These chickens have lived in Hitt's backyard in St. Louis since early April. She and her family have enjoyed the pale blue eggs the hens lay. And her three young kids are having fun with the birds. "I mean, that's the first thing they're thinking of when they wake up in the morning, is like, how are the chickens and what are they doing?" Hitt said.

But this year, it’s sold out through October. “That's 40 weeks of chickens that are pre-sold,” Watkins said.
